W.P. Franklin campground is highly praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained facilities, and friendly staff, making it a favorite for many visitors. The serene river surroundings and well-spaced sites offer a relaxing atmosphere for fishing and enjoying nature. However, concerns about excessive speed bumps and some strict monitoring by hosts were noted, with suggestions for improvement on these aspects.

A beautiful setting with excellent facilities. Every site is a waterfront site. Level, concrete pads with nice asphalt roads, manicured grass. and a boat ramp. The lock is open to view boat traffic. Hard to get a spot here because it is so popular. Absolutely loved the place....!
